Business Description

About the shop
An Alameda institution
for over 60 years.
First opened in 1953, Al’s Barber Shop has maintained a long legacy of quality and
professionalism. After Al Vigna's retirement in 2014, the shop was passed down to long-time
protegé Nick Vlahos and fellow barbers Brad Roberts and Joe Polissky. After a brief hiatus, Al’s
is back with an updated space, ready to provide our community with top-notch service and
quality.

Shop Policies

We understand that circumstances arise that require canceling or rescheduling an
appointment. The following policies are established to ensure that we can provide all of our

valued clients with the best possible service and experience.

CANCELLATIONS:
12-hour advanced notice is required for any appointment cancellations. This allows ample time
for another client seeking service to make an appointment online. Any cancellations or
modifications within 12-hours will be subject to paying the full price of the service prior to any
future services. Our online appointment service will allow you to cancel or modify your
appointment. You can also cancel or modify your appointment by clicking the “Modify Your
Appointment” button at the bottom of the confirmation e-mail you received after scheduling your
service.
NO SHOW:
Failure to show up for a scheduled appointment without canceling online, or without first
contacting the shop by e-mail will cause the client to be charged for the full price of the missed
service. Our phone/outgoing voicemail is for informational purposes only. Please do not leave a
voice message.
LATE ARRIVALS:
To ensure that we deliver the best possible service to all of our valued clients, we have allotted
the necessary time to complete each appointment and provide a great experience. Arriving on
time for your scheduled service is imperative for us to comfortably complete your service.
Regretfully, we cannot adequately complete any service if a client arrives more than 10 minutes
late (5 minutes late for beard-trim only service). We reserve the right to respectfully decline
service to a client who is over 10 minutes late for their scheduled appointment.
